It was bound to happen: re-runs.

But that’s fine! How many people go back through hundreds of conversations and find a gem? My guess is very little, so this is a great chance to showcase some older pods … now out in paperback (haha).

You know Mary Karr. She ushered in the memoir boom with The Liars’ Club and followed that up with Cherry and Lit. Her craft book The Art of Memoir is brilliant, as is her poetry in Tropic of Squalor.

This episode originally aired in 2018 with the publication of ToS, so I hope you’ll enjoy (or re-enjoy) this conversation with Mary Karr!
